What is the hottest your gs3 has gotten?

**dpham00** · 07-20-2012, 12:42 AM

Mine has seen 111°F. Ambient at the time was around high 80s. What about you? what was the hottest your gs3 has seen?

You can use an app like "Battery Monitor Widget" from the play store to log temps.

I'll download that app and check back later. I was on the web and downloading apps for a while last night and the phone did get pretty hot, enough to make me let it cool down.....

I just downloaded the app as well. I'll post temps at EOD.

How long had you been using the phone when it reached that temperature?

Looks like a very nice app.

Curious why does the app show your battery as 1500mAh? Aren't they 2300mAh?

The app read the wrong mah. Stock is 2100mah.

Actually you have to go in and change the battery mah. It is in the settings!

What do I enter for AC charger output power?

I saw 117 when using GPS & Pandora while charging on my dashboard (in the mount) for an hour during the hottest part of the day.

I just did the battery mah and that is 2100 like Dpham00 Said!

The hottest mine has gotten is 109.5. And that was, ironically, after beeing on the Android Central app. By the way, the AC app is the only one that freezes up on my phone. I believe an update is in order.

**dalba79** · 07-20-2012, 10:31 PM

I have gotten 107...so I took out my battery and put both phone n battery in freezer to cool down...

I don't have the exact temp as I didn't have the app installed at the time but running navigation and pocket casts while charging in my car dock which was attached to my windshield on a southern California day that hit 95 degrees made this happen.
